I love, love, love this post! My toddler has been racing around the house to William Tell Overture and marching

to the Imperial March (yep, we’re geeks in our house) and I wanted more of the same for her to dance and play

to so I found this list through the magic of google. This is perfect!







Thanks Nicole, You paint a lovely picture! so glad the playlist has gone down so well 🙂

Can I buy these tracks on a CD? Or can you suggest an available CD with a smilar selection designed toappeal

to young children/

Thanks.

Hi Deborah,

I’m not sure about a CD, but each of these tracks are linked to the individual Amazon download so you could

download the tracks individually. Just click on the title 🙂

Hope that helps!

When I taught elementary music, my students loved Satie’s Gymnopedie No. 1. I used the orchestral version

with John Feierabend’s “Move It!” choreography. I also expanded on it with creative movement activities. The

kids were so quiet, yet smiling so widely. They just loved it!

What fun – I love that idea! It’s so great to see kids really absorbing themselves in creative movement 🙂

My children have not been introduced to much classical music, but they ADORE Masquerade I: Waltz from

Khachaturian: Piano Concerto, Violin Concerto, Masquerade Suite, Symphony No. 2. You simply cannot help

but imagine a grand waltz and join in!

How lovely! That’s a great suggestion 🙂

A lovely list! Though why is there a picture of Mozart on the Canon in D youtube video when Pachelbel

composed it? 🙂

kids/#comment-474)

Thanks 🙂 would you add any tracks? I have no idea on the video front! You’ll have to ask the person who

made the video on YouTube!

That’s a great suggestion, though I felt maybe a bit overpowering/grown up for very young children. It’s pretty

much impossible to narrow down any choices – it should really be 100 Best Classical tracks! What else would

you add?

up for very young children. It’s pretty much impossible to narrow down any choices – it should really be 100

Best Classical tracks! What else would you put at the top of your list?
